Will a Faulty Canister Purge Solenoid Valve Significantly Increase Fuel Consumption?
1 Answers
Carbon canister solenoid valve damage will significantly increase fuel consumption, and secondly, engine power will decrease. Symptoms of a faulty solenoid valve: If the solenoid valve of the car's activated carbon canister is damaged, it will prevent the activated carbon canister from opening and closing, directly leading to increased fuel consumption. You may occasionally hear abnormal noises under non-idle conditions, and when pressing the accelerator to accelerate, the vehicle's idle speed may fluctuate, accompanied by weak acceleration. These are all symptoms of a damaged carbon canister solenoid valve. The function of the car's carbon canister: The carbon canister in a car utilizes the adsorption properties of activated carbon to collect fuel vapors and prevent waste. The carbon canister solenoid valve opens when the car starts, releasing the adsorbed fuel vapors into the intake manifold to enter the engine for combustion.
